Yep in any case gaming will be underwhelming. Hopefully Intel tries to market the Core 7 as a more budget friendly cpu and it tries to compete at least in fps/dollar. Although for that they would need a 50$ cut but it would be good for the consumer.It could be like the AMD performance increase going to 24H2 on Windows 11.
If this is the case it maybe just a matter of waiting for Windows updates or test in Linux and see if there is any difference
